#57 ADHD: Strengths, Challenges & Advice | Lara Honos-Webb

We hear a lot about ADHD these days. And yet, there are misconceptions about what it actually is and what a person can do if they are diagnosed with the condition. What may surprise people is that there can be many great gifts that often accompany ADHD. My guest, Dr. Lara Honos-Webb (www.addisagift.com), is a psychologist in private practice in Walnut Creek, CA, and she specializes in the study and treatment of ADHD in both adults and children.  She has written many highly-acclaimed books about ADHD.  The School Library Journal said that her work provides a “clear and stimulating guide for teens to sharpen their ability to control their thoughts and actions.” I am a fan of Lara and I just listened to the audio version of her book called Brain Hacks.  I found it to be a superb compendium of easy-to-implement tips on boosting any person's brain whether ADHD is in the mix or not. In this interview, Lara goes into depth about what a person can do if they or someone they love has an ADHD diagnosis.  I am so grateful to Lara for her work and for joining me on this interview, and I am confident you will learn a lot from her as she shares her incredible gems.
